re: I'm a gun owner - is it really that bad to make a gun registry and require mental screens?

Well by your logic shooting you a room full of kids just takes more kids off the government teat too so we shouldn’t have any gun laws to ensure mass murder is easier. Y’a know, to ease the tax payer burden or whatever. Who gives a shite.

When the media stops glorifying this type of thing, giving the shooters exactly what they want: fame and immortality.
Funny how these types of shootings happen all the time in inner cities, but are never reported by the media.
Only when it involves white people.
Well, unless the person doing the killing is black. Then it gets buried.

Ironically, I’ve been arguing this same topic on a golf forum today. They were talking mental health and how it needs to be addressed. I simply asked who decides on the mental issues needing to be addressed.

I realize this may difficult for someone like you. But it’s possible for well adjusted adults to think it’s bad that some kids got killed and also think that really don’t need to make a new law about guns because it happened. Call me crazy but that’s how I feel.

Anyone that says Boofrickinghoo is a mental midget
I say that as someone on your side of the gun issue.

So you’re upset that I wasn’t sensitive enough about the issue for you. Is that correct?
Would it make you feel better if I sent Ts & Ps and said this was an evil and terrible thing before giving my opinion to a bunch of anonymous strangers on the internet?

how many college aged females have been killed in gun violence in your state in the last 50 years?
you would hire armed security for something that is statistically a 0% chance of happening? how do you even let her leave the house?
if you want to really be technical: send her to Virginia Tech, there’s never once been multiple mass shootings at the same school of any level. so that’s the safest place

I guess it’s commendable to admit a few mass shootings a year is a cost of doing business
We keep saying it’s a mental health issue but year after year absolutely dick has been done. I get why people are over it
Idk I am just another retard like the rest of everyone here

What gets me is the uptick in election years.
There is no one size fits all solution. Some people are just bad. It’s just that simple.

The question you need to ask yourself is why this happens so frequently today when firearms were just as prevalent for almost a hundred years, with little to any examples of this happening.
Why did it start accelerating in the 90s, and really took off in the 2000s?

This thread proves there’s no hope.
Too many people in this country see every single thing through a politics lens and tribalistic warfare.
It’s wild that so many of you hate the other political party so much that you’d rather see kids get gunned down than give the other side an inch.
I can’t stand most of the progressive agenda. I also think the far right is a bunch of conspiracy theory loving morons.
You extremist on both sides are ruining this country.
Every time I mention gun control you throw out some shite about trannies and black kids blah blah.
I hate all criminals. I could give two fricks when some low life thug gets killed for fighting the police. I think pronouns are absurd.
But I can separate myself from politics ideologies enough to acknowledge there is a huge problem with gun violence and an open range free for all is not the answer.
Would be amazing if some of you could not simply tow the party line for once.

You’re just ignoring every point that doesn’t align precisely with yours and throwing it under the “muh extremist fringe!!1!” umbrella

No it's not. Mass shootings(4+ victims) are not the same as Active Shooter incidents despite what stats people like to throw out there.
Active Shooter Incidents are up by almost 100% in the last 10 years.
That's unacceptable.

Here, let me list how many times those of us who hold the 2nd Amendment as an important right have given an inch:
1934 NFA
1938 FFA
1968 Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act
1968 GCA
1988 UFA
1990 Gun-Free School Zones Act
1993 Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act
Where have gun control advocates given an inch?
I'll wait.

Ever wonder why we never hear about serial killers anymore? I often think about that, and it almost certainly has to do with the tracking devices in everyone's pockets and cameras on every corner. Serial killers are a dying breed...too easy to get caught now.
The deranged kids these days are different in that they were raised by social media and instant gratification. Instant fame, no matter the way you get it. The slow burn of a serial killer has morphed into the instant gratification of the mass shooter.
These mass shooters are this generation's serial killers. They've simply adapted to how they can get their release. In my opinion, anyways.
